The Starfighters – (1964) Full Movie

If you think of this as a “Top Gun” or “Final Countdown” sorta movie it works – the acting sucks – plot? / you’re kidding – “Top Gun” starred the F-14 Tomcat – “The Final Countdown” starred the “The USS Nimitz” – and this “gem” is chock full of F-104 footage – Lockheed’s missile with a man in it . . .

Enjoy your Saturday matinee . . .

ERPO – The Commies ARE Coming . . .

In order to get to you – they MUST disarm YOU – and since YOU are a member of the most dangerous political movement in the history of this country – this is true stuff – The Animated Corpse of the Regime of the Glorious and Harmonious P&PBUH (Plus 10%) Orifice of The (p)Resident, The Dementor-in-Chief, Emperor Poopypants the First, Chief Executive of the Kidsmeller Pursuivant, Good Ole Slo Xi-Den ( thanks BCE ) said so – well at least his earpiece told him to say so . . .

This is simple stuff folks – all you have to do is have just about ANY brain dead zombie believe you MIGHT be a danger to yourself or others – and the regime comes and takes your guns . . .

Whatever are WE TO DO??

Have a quick quote . . .

Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?… The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If…if…We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation…. We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

Friday Music – Orwell Edition (1984)

Before we get to 1984 – one from 1982 that I completely forgot . . . – as an aside to this – A long time ago ( 1996 ) I got a call on my cell phone – answered it – a woman asked if “Jack” was there – I said no he’s not – who’s this?? She said this is Diane . . . I asked her if she needed help dribbling off her “Bobby Brooks” – probably 10 seconds of silence and then she laughed for about 30 seconds – She says this is not Jack’s number – right? I said no it isn’t – can I help?? – Giggling she managed to say thank you for the bright spot of her week ( this was like Thursday or Friday ) We said good-bye to each other and she went on her way . . .

Any way – on with the songs . . .

One of my personal favorites from 1984 – made it to #81 – a wee bit of John not Cougar but Lennon . . .

This next?? – I know it’s from 1971 – but you just can’t do “Yes” and not have this playing on a track somewhere in your head – you’re welcome . . .

Kinda sorta had to do this next one – Enjoy . . .

And I found this as well . . .

Nena had a goal – she wanted to release an English language version in her country and a German language version in the US and have both hit number one – she didn’t make it but she tried . . .

And of course . . .

The English version in the artist’s native country and the “foreign” language in the us both number 1 hits?? – only been done once – the Japanese language version charted #1here in 1963 . . .

Enjoy !!

And you can read about here on WIKI . . .

So many to choose from – gotta stop somewhere – so here’s the number 1 for the year 1984 . . .

Meet Walter – Col. Walter L. Watson

If any of you folks pay any attention to Brian Shul’s videos he’s often referencing “Walter” – the guy that gets to do all the secret squirrel stuff while I ( Brian ) only get to drive the “sled” . . .

Meet Walter . . .

Kinda sorta the same interview only at The Smithsonian Air and Space Museum . . .
